Good to know
Common questions
General guidance about builders in the UK, not specific to any one business.
Do I need planning permission for an extension?
Most single-storey rear extensions under 4 metres need only Building Regulations approval, not planning. Two-storey extensions typically require planning permission. Proximity to boundaries and conservation areas affect this. A local authority check before design starts saves time and money.
What is Building Regulations approval?
Building Regulations are safety and construction standards set by local authorities. They cover structural stability, fire safety, insulation, and drainage. Work must pass inspections at foundation, frame, and completion stages. An approved inspector or local authority must sign off the finished job.
How long does a loft conversion typically take?
A straightforward loft conversion usually takes 8 to 12 weeks from start to finish. Complex jobs with structural steel, dormer windows, or complications can extend to 16 weeks or more. Weather and Building Control inspection scheduling can add time.
What is repointing and why does mortar fail?
Repointing is removing old mortar between bricks and filling with fresh mortar. Mortar fails due to age, weathering, freeze-thaw cycles, and using wrong mortar type. Historic lime mortar should be replaced with lime-based mortar, not modern cement, to avoid trapping moisture in brickwork.
What happens if a property fails Building Regulations inspection?
The inspector will identify what does not meet standards. The work must be corrected and reinspected. Common issues are inadequate insulation, incorrect floor levels, or drainage defects. Remedial work costs time and money, so getting design right beforehand is critical.
How deep do foundations need to be?
Foundation depth depends on soil type and ground conditions. Clay and sandy soils require deeper foundations than chalk or rock. Local authority Building Control sets minimum depths based on site investigation. Shallow foundations on unstable ground lead to subsidence and serious structural problems later.
